Taiwan to make Notorious Chery car for China

Made-in-China small car Chery Amulet, or Chery QQ, was ranked "the worst ever seen" in a crash test (Chery Amulet - almost no chance to survive). Chinese claimed that the test is biased, but comparison of several cars seems to confirm that, and an accident in which a Chery was turned completely into a small pile of unrecognizable waste (Chery(奇瑞) QQ crashed into a piece,terrible car accident) testifies tragically how terribly unsafe this car is .

A report from carnews.com says that Taiwan auto manufacturer Prince Motor ( 太子汽車 ) will start making Chery for China for both domestic (uurrhhh ... which country?) and overseas buyers.

The report says that it might create more jobs in short term, but wonders if the long-built reputation of "Made in Taiwan" good quality be sacrificed in the future.

Well, the "Taiwan lack of concern for safety" will not be sacrificed. That's for certain.
